User talk:Max2028

Welcome
Hello, Max2028, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you have edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been reverted for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome! {&#123; Sonia &#124;talk&#124;simple}&#125; 09:14, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Chi Omega Psi
A tag has been placed on Chi Omega Psi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. {&#123; Sonia &#124;talk&#124;simple}&#125; 09:17, 12 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Max, I doubt that your page is going to survive, or indeed should survive, but you've done a lot of hard work on it, so I've stored a copy for you in your userspace at User:Max2028/Chi Omega Psi. That way, once it's gained some additional prominence and, hopefully, spread to a few more colleges you'll be able to try reviving it without having to work on it from scratch. The problem, in my opinion, is that right now you're just another student organization at a single college, no different from dozens of other campus clubs there. Just as we wouldn't be willing to have an article about your school's French club or backgammon club or science fiction club, I don't think that we'll probably be willing to have one about your fraternity. Maybe I'll be wrong (and I won't be the one to delete your page or to vote in favor of it), but just in case I'm right, I'm giving you some backup. A word of caution, however: If your page is deleted, do not just take this code and put it back up; if you think that it was deleted unfairly, contact the administrator who deleted it and discuss the matter. He or she will have the ability to undelete it. If you don't want to keep the code I've given you: Just edit that page and put at the very top and an administrator will delete it. Best regards and good luck,  T RANSPORTER M AN   ( TALK ) 18:49, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
